Before & After

Before - just a dirty, rusty old head board, foot board & bed frame...or is it more than that? You be the judge.

After a high pressure wash, a night to dry out and a coat of 'hammered' spray paint, here's what we got!

Toss in a $15 bed skirt......

an end table from the storage shed....

and Mom & Dad's armoire they don't use any more, and Zoë has herself a much more 'grown up' bedroom!

Thank you for the bed G&G Campbell! We were more then happy to take it off your hands!

Now on to T-Bone...his current 'favorites' are:

Collecting Monster Trucks....pictured are: Grave Digger, Blue Thunder, Air Force (something), Super Man, Travis Pastrana's truck & Monster Mutt. Wanted: Maximum Destruction (amongst others that I can't think of right now!)

Sleeping with Jax. I'm not sure which one of them is happier about this arrangement. The feeling is definitely mutual!

And I love animals in my bed. Sometimes I feel like Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, with 3 dogs and a cat in bed with me. :); April 8, 2009 at 10:43 PM

Bill Brown

Bill Brown made a million - Bill Brown! Think of that!
A boy, you remember, as poor as a rat;
He hoed for the neighbors, did jobs by the day,
But Bill made a million, or near it, they say.
You can't understand it? Well, neither could I,
And then I remembered, and now I know why:
The bell might be ringing, the dinner horn blow;
But Bill always hoed to the end of the row.

Bill worked for my father, you maybe recall;
He wasn't a wonder - not that, not at all;
He couldn't out-hoe me, or cover more ground,
Or hoe any cleaner, or beat me around.
In fact, I was better in one way that I know:
One toot from the kitchen and home I would go;
But Bill always hoed to the end of the row.

We used to get hungry out there in the corn.
When you talk about music, what equals a horn?
A horn yellin' dinner, tomatoes and beans,
And pork and potatoes and gravy and greens?
I ain't blamin' no one for quittin' on time,
To stop with the whistle, that ain't a crime.
But as for the million - well, this much I know:
That Bill always hoed to the end of the row.
